I decided to give your map a try and I am quite impressed with it. It is now my map of choice.

Thank you!!!

You're welcome, and thanks for the compliment. Check back every now and then, because I will be doing small improvements over time.

I made both with and without and I fluctuated between the two, I went back and included both in the download. There are other small details that were fixed.

Very clear, terrain map graphics mesh with "1" hotkey reality, can tell instantly what each hex terrain's is.

Fantastic job.

Status: offline 		Same problem. I have installed maps before so I 'know' what to do. The maps are coded WPEH not WPEN so they don't overwrite the original map graphics. Is this the problem, or do you have to remove the original WPEN files and it then defaults to using the WPEH ones?

So far now issues. Only annoying thing is that when i go to my desktop to do some other stuff and open the game screen the text screens are green!

These new maps also seem to speed up scrolling rates, and reduce the mouse click delays greatly.

Probably because the older graphics aren't handled well by the newer graphics cards.

Thought I'd share this with the community.

Solid colour mixture, nice nuances and good visibility - all in all good map for a solid GUI.
BR!

thanks for any info.

Status: offline 		I'm a new player having just purchased the game in the recent sale. I found the original map to be very "busy" for my old eyes. I perused the forum for map mods and found this one. I have to say it is gorgeous, and thank you for creating and sharing it. On other hand, my wife says it is harder on her eyes and she does not like to look at it. That may turn out to be a good thing.

If you haven't already seen these tutorial videos for the game, they are fantastic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMWDuJLXjXQ&list=PLSgMOSrhbsUY4MMngkf5__S8xO8Wzi4JG

Yes, I have seen them. They are very helpful. Thanks for posting the link again; there may be others who have not yet seen them.

I was running my stock map on my desktop and on a side table I had my gaming notebook playing the tutorials. I immediately decided I wanted those graphics, so I downloaded and installed the Kamikaze map and the update.

I see this too, is this why my new images won't work?

Update: I turned hexes on and the maps work now. I guessed that the "H" in the names stood for hexes, it was\is.

Status: offline 		Given the fact that the maker of the map has created only a WPEH version i.e. map panels *with* hexes, you cannot use and view this map free of hexes unless you make your own version of this map without hexes.
